Classical Mountain bike tour in Bohemian Switzerland National Park
Classical Mountain bike tour in Bohemian Switzerland National Park
This backcountry mountain biking tour lets you ride natural, rocky trails, with a mix of ancient forest footpaths and new trails, the result of the efforts of local trail builders. You’ll spend a day in the incredible beauty of two national park areas straddling the Czech-German border. Bohemian Switzerland and Saxon Switzerland were so named by a pair of Swiss Romantic painters who once travelled, and painted, this area; the countryside reminded them of the Alpine landscape that was their home.
This MTB day trip is full of uphills, downhills and some technical sections and rock gardens. You’ll be riding trails in Europe’s deepest sandstone canyon, with its bizarre rock formations. You’ll also hit the two major sandstone mesas of the area: Děčínský Sněžník, with an elevation of 723 m above sea level is not only the highest and the largest table top mountain in the Czech Republic, but also a popular starting point of the local trail area; its counterpart on the German side of the border is Großer Zschirnsten. Both of them will astound you with mesmerizing views.
